32Carlo Crivelli (Venice c. 1430 Ascoli Piceno
1495) was an Italian Renaissance painter of
conservative Late Gothic decorative sensibility,
who spent his early years in the Veneto, where he
absorbed influences from the Vivarini, Squarcione
and Mantegna. Crivelli was born around 143035 in
Venice to a family of painters and received his
artistic formation there and in Padua. He was
master of his own shop when sent to prison for
adultery in 1457. He left the Veneto by 1458 and
spent most of the remainder of his career in the
March of Ancona, where he developed a distinctive
personal style that contrasts with that of his
Venetian contemporary Giovanni Bellini. His works
can be identified by his characteristic use of
fruits and flowers as decorative motifs, often
depicted in pendant festoons, which are also a
hallmark of the Paduan studio of Francesco
Squarcione, where Crivelli may have worked.
Commissioned by the Franciscans and Dominicans of
Ascoli, Crivelli's work is exclusively religious
in nature. His paintings consist largely of
Madonna and Child images, Pietà, and the
altarpieces known as polyptychs that were
increasingly unfashionable. His work fell out of
favor following his death and Vasari's Lives of
the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and
Architects, which is notably Florentine in its
outlook, does not mention him. He had something
of a revival, especially in the UK, during the
time of the pre-Raphaelite painters, several of
whom, including Edward Burne-Jones, admired his
work
